Well, I thought I'd jump in here - though like some of you folks, I'm much more comfortable behind the camera than in front of it. My wife used her P&S to take this photo of me all bundled up in a heavy coat and snow pants (temporarily sans hat and gloves) putting out a bucket of corn at a northern Minnesota wintering site for trumpeter swans. It was a beautiful, moody, foggy morning. The swans are eager to be my friend - as long as the corn holds out. :) As you might imagine, with this many birds, one bucket doesn't last very long. Photography here is challenging as you try to get a clean shot of one, or a few, birds.
